“The general principle is that the solution does not have to be in the form of what you see”

Nassim Nicholas Taleb

Simplified Meaning:

Sometimes, answers to problems don't look like what we expect. For example, if you have a broken chair, you might think the only fix is a new chair, but sometimes adding a cushion can solve it. This idea teaches us to think outside the box. In history, people used to rely on horses for transport. When cars were invented, it was a new kind of solution that no one had imagined. Similarly, in your life, try considering different ways to solve issues. Don’t always stick to obvious answers; be open to creative solutions.
